HEUR Quick Summary
HEURs are low molecular weight associative thickeners comprised of ethylene oxide chains
with hydrophobic end groups. They are water soluble across pH levels and provide enhanced flow and levelling, high film build, spatter resistance, and brush/roller loading. HEURs are particularly
well suited to high-gloss and semi-gloss formulations, as well as applications where water resistance is key. A new technology offers the paint producers
a range of efficient solvent-free* HEURs at low as-supplied viscosity.
